Phil Mickelson: How to Shape Your Iron Shots

Phil Mickelson teaches you the proper techniques on how to curve the ball both ways with your irons.

I can hit all of these shots, I just don't know when it will happen

[philippaik]

Cool Phil! But how do I stop shaping shots?

[Ayetown]

Kept it simple today Phil. Stayed within my element and proceeded to Shoot a 110 .

Phil is the greatest not only for risk reward golf but also one of the greatest teachers of the game. How simple has he made that people shoukd listen to him but showing some fantastic controlled fades or draws. We can make it simpleor complex as Phil says I prefer simple so I can focus all my energies on trying to get that ball as close to that pin as I can. His brand of golf and his personality made me want to play this game

When I wanna take a couple yards off my 5 iron, I merely swing with my 5 iron

I know this video is old but I first saw this video last night and went out to the range today and this absolutely fixed my slice by turning over my wrist at my waist and for the first time ever I’m able to shape shots and I was calling my shots and hitting multiple greens with ease. Thank you Phil! You’re a legend 🙏🙌🏌️⛳️

Phil's tips have saved me the most translatable strokes of all the youtube videos I've watched thus far.

That's so funny to me. All his fades and draws are beautiful and subtle. At my handicap, anything that ends up on the fairway counts as straight. I don't care if it bounces off trees, cart paths, pedestrians or is carried there by a bird. That's straight.

That was explained well, Phil….it actually makes simple sense for me and the bending of the elbows for the draw… great way to not overthink while swinging for that draw…other tips I’ve heard of just doesn’t click mentally for me, hard to duplicate such a throwing the bucket of water over your shoulder or working with the hands…this seems easy to duplicate. I’ve been doing this at the range today , drawing the ball…but it was not consistent… can’t wait to try out this thought process. I think it’s going to work to make consistent shot shaping. Many thanks!

Phil, un placer ver tus videos y que compartas tu sabiduria del golf con aficionados amateurs, pero si fuera posible necesito, y estimo que muchos de habla hispana, que los videos sean subtitulados en español, muchas gracias, un saludo cordial, Daniel Tibaldi, Argentina

[CorekBleedingHollow]

Amazing. He makes shot shaping look fun

[jc]

What a flex that he only took enough golf balls to demonstrate each swing done perfectly the first time. Legendary skill, great explanation and demonstrations

[xslashx]

Yeah guys, do it just like that. It's very simple.

[bobstrempie]

I love his instruction style. Simple and to the point. Most of the other golf channels on here blather on and talk too much around the point they are trying to make.

[johntatum]

Looks likke some kind of snake behind the bush in the background when the camera is directly in front of Phil. Sorry about that, I am here to see Phil's swong...love it.

[ShayneJellyman]

30 years of mastered technique in 3 minutes....makes it sound too easy!!

[MrDrew]

Dammit Phil now you are in my head with this madness. My game revolves around not thinking about what shot to take but to go out there and hack away to success. You are killing me man making it look so easy.

[tonytribble]

If he could hit his driver a little better, no telling how many more wins he would have. Great player, no fear !

[bv.hd]

Here's me again, watching PM tips and tricks before going to the golf course and struggle shooting under 90 XD

[spy-c-boi]

Phill real good at shaping them into the water 😆
